Lyrics When You Sleep - Angie Hart

When You Sleep

I’m so sorry
I’m so stubborn
Deaf in one eat
And out the other
I’m just like my mother
And hers before hers before hers
I’m working so hard
To understand myself
I can’t begin to know you
Though I’ve memorised your face
Beside me on the pillow
Dreaming of a super hero
I wish I saw what you do when you sleep
In all my dreams I’m a helpless humiliated creep
I wish I was the girl behind your R.E.M
Every day you look at me and tell me that I am
